I’ve heard this type of persuasion before. “Your brothers are off to do an essential, dangerous job: deep sea fishing. I need you, however, for a critical, most important task …
… reorganizing the silverware drawer.”
I would say it can be critical, as it will directly effect said leader’s decisions during a dangerous time for their kingdom. Your only as good as your advisors, after all…
Have we heard her name before? It always makes me so happy to work out the pun. I feel like Kur’ik’s name should be some sort of wordplay too, but maybe it’s a privilege held only by the ‘Nj family.
I’m sure her name has been mentioned, considering she’s Syr’Nj and Fr’Nj’s mother. But other elves have had punny names – Sc’Wl, Bibli’Oh, Gr’Zl, to name a few. There’s a bunch in the bonus book for Volume 3, but I’m not at home, so I can’t check those.
The best way to keep some one distracted, make them read to you.
Say THAT name three times fast.
Your Eldest Your Eldest Your Eldest!
THAT name THAT name THAT name!
Faereksch’nj, Faireschanj, Fair exchange
Oh, Fair Exchange. I, um, was getting something not suitable for polite company. Well, or pertaining to building a structure.
I used to get “far-reaching.”
OH… so her name means something too. I couldn’t make it out until you mentioned it.

To be fair, briefing the leader about all the information gained working in the enemy’s inner circle is pretty important.
And only marginally safer. She will be staying in a possible war zone after all.

*You’re
Dunno if it was dealt with before, but that name took me a second to puzzle together.
Fair Exchange… heh.

I don’t remember if it was ever said in the comic itself, but she’s always been tagged that way.
Kur’ik is a reporter. Her name is a wordplay, just a little more basic than the ‘njes.
Well done! I totally missed that.
Your picture really goes well with your explanation. It makes it seem even smarter than it already was.
This is the joy of a GravaTedd.
Science Teddy.
Kur’ik was the name of the person that brought us coffee.
WAV’s notes are in order, they’re all in ac-chord.
It’s said that when scribes have had a taste of adventure they don’t want to scribe no more and have to be put down. Shame when that happens.
It’s tragic, but it has to be done. Otherwise, you end up with bards.
If they go the other way, you get Pun’dits.
How do you keep em on the farm, once they’ve seen gay Paree?
Okay…
Now scribble! Scribble like your leaf depended on it!
I wonder if the leaf Kur’ik is wearing is a fig leaf? :D
I foresee a future secret alliance between gnomes and wood elves.
No, I am not a winter elf.
I’m proud of Kur’ik for doing this good deed. Old people get lonely and reading their mail to them is a good way to make them feel better.
Challenged chronicler = hot chronicler.
I assume she keeps her notes in better order than her loose leaf binding.
